Trusted shower tray repair in Red Craig

Shower tray repair in Red Craig without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you are dealing with a crack across the base and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Red Craig

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we are called out for in Red Craig

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price
